To the Most Advanced Pupils.

/ have often stated that you
should be careful in the use of Ian
guage. You ought to study gram
mar, not only to learn to parse, to
analyze, and to make beautiful dia-
grams, but to learn to speak and
write correctly.
| have frequently heard pupils in
school say, 81 don't care how l talk
if | speak so that others can under
stand me, that.is enough" To sd m
l would say, you may at some time
be in refined society, and people may
laugh at your ignorance.
Ifyour teacher uses incorrect Ian
guage, show him his error, and if he
is gentleman he will thank you for
it. You also, should be thankful to
your teacher whenever he points out
your errors.
After the examination of teachers
was held in Warren county, one
teacher said to me, 81 have done got
my certificate" Another teacher
said, "He has done begun his school" "
Look at the errors, note them in your
book, and always avoid them.
Here is an example given at a
county examination in Ohio.
"a man bought two horses for
100000. He sold them for S25O.OO
apiece. The gain on one was 5 per
cent more than on the other. Re-
quired the cost of EACH"
Answer, first horse, $152.43x.
f" second $l47,56x.
In another county the following ex-
ample was given. Is the answer the
same as in the preceding example?
GA man bought two horses fol
100000. He sold them for $250.0C
apiece. The number of per cent gain
was more in one case than in the
other. Required the cost of EACH"

Warren County Vigilance Committee

IRVING COLLEGE, TENN. July II 'S7.
EDITORSTANDARD:-We ask kspace
in your valuable paper to inform the
public of the state of affairs in this
community. AS Vigilance Commit
tee of Warren county, we claim that
we have been misrepresented by a
few unprincipled men, who have been
circulating some counterfeit commu-
nications through the community as
serting that we are endeavoring to re-
port men for "wild eating" liquor,
which is notorious falsehood; that
is out of our line of business. There
is not a member of the Committee
who would be guilty of such conduct;
we have always opposed such con-
duct in any community.
We now propose to show the peo-
pie what we are for. We believe in
strict compliance with the laws of
both God and man the object of our
organization is not to do anybody any
personal harm, but to see that justice
is done to all, without any discrim-
nations whatever.
1t has further been said of us that
we have been watching our neighbor's
houses after night, and we say that
there is not shadow of truth in
this charge; such is beneath the dig
nifty of any member of the Commit
tee. Now the only excuse that they
have for circulating these base false
hoods is because our constitution de-
nounces the sOcalled Ku-KluX who
have been riding through our coun-
try for the last two years, without
consulting any citizen Of the country.
No doubt in days of the past ku-kluX
did much good work, but that day
has passed and it is to be hoped that
we are living in a better age of the
world. 1t is further circulated that
the Committee is composed of negroes
and Republicans, which is also un-
true. There is not a man in it who
is not a faithful Democrat and always
has been and expects to stand true to
the party to the end, while we wish
to see justice done to all.
Very Respectfully,
| VIGILANCE Com. OF WARREN Co.

The Lawyers and Prohibition.

The Bar Association of Tennessee
met at Knoxville Wednesday. We
clip the following note of their pro-
ceedings from the American:
The question of what popular vote
is necessary for the ratification of an
amendment to the Constitution of
Tennessee was taken up. Three able
papers, by Messrs. J. J. Turner,
John J. Vertrees and j. A. Cart
wright, were read, each one taking
different view onthe subject.
Mr.. Turner thought a majority of
the votes cast in the last election for
representatives-11S,2 ,22S-was all that
would be required.
Mr.. Vertrees thought the vote cast
in 1886 was irrelevant; more than a
majority would be required, and that
the amendment must receive ma
jority of all the citizens qualified to
vote for representatives before it
could be declared as carried.
Mr.. Cartwright held that MAORI
ty of the electors who were qualified
to vote for representatives, was all
that was necessary. There were a
number ofprohibition leaders present
during the discussion.

possible for purchasers to tell what
breed of horses he was buying.
To stop this swindle the commits
sion having the Stud Books of France
in charge, decided to have only one
book for the registration of French
draft horses which has not been
named yet.
The first French draft register in
the United States was called the
Percheron-Norman register and all
horses recorded as such, so it would
be right to call the horse Percheron
or Norman either according to his
record. There is Bob Havre, Char
tres, Louis Napoleon, st. Laurent,
Nogeant and Duke de Chartres, all
recorded in this book and always
called by their owners Normans and
advertised as such. Dillon Bros,
Ed. Hodgson, Virgin & Brown, Eli
Hodgson, White Bros, J. B. Strawn,
Wabash Importing Co., and many
others have horses recorded in the
Percheron Stud Books of France.
Still they call them Normans. There
are only few importers of French
draft horses in the United States but
what advertise to sell Norman horses.
These same importers will show their
horses at one fair as Normans and at
another as Percherons,an vice versa.
They are allowed to do this because
they are pedigreed and recorded as
such.
Now in conclusion, as these horses
are the same in color, style, action
and durability, and come from the
same ancestors, with pedigrees the
same, they must be one and the same
horse. Now, Mr.. Editor, I would
like to hear from some one else on
the subject better posted than l am.
Awaiting to have the subject more
fully explained, I am

Do You Want to be a Market Gar.
dener?

W. II. Bull, Hampden county, Mass.
No one need expect to succeed in
market gardening who has not a keen
interest in the study, as well as the
practice ofthe profession; or rather the
trade; for it is more than a business
or employment. 1t is something
more than dull round of cares meth
odically regular and governed by
the calender. A method of plowing,
manuring, drilling, hoeing, harvest
ing, marketing, can be easily learned
and blindly followed, but gardener
to succeed must be in earnest. A
gardener is not an annual; he is a
hardy perennial, or should be; TAX
ing root in the soil, he should not eX-
pect all seasons to bring the same re-
ward; but make the best use of the
probable sunshine, rain and air. He
must be man to handle the pen or
plow; he must read and have
courage without recklessness, be self
reliant, and persevering must work
long hours, be a man to look after
details of the smallest kind, know
when to save and when to spend free
ly; must forget much that he learns
and learn not to forget; sponge to
absorb knowledge and discreet in his
methods of applying or distributing
it calm to bear failure and endure
success. He must plan his business
for the future and not the present
good.

A Soldiers Clear Grit.

st. Stephens Review.
AS a young officer doing duty with
a Madras cavalry regiment, Sir Ed
ward Bradford was a keen sports
man. One day when tiger shooting
he "missed his mark" and soon
found himself in a tigers clutches.
1t was an anious moment, few of his
friends being at hand. AS sports
man of experience, Sir Edward
knew well that the best course was
to lie quietly and sham death. The
tiger surveyed his prey, looked
around, and thinking all was safe,
set steadily to work to make its meal.
Taking the young officers hand in
his mouth it was steadily disposed
of, and the arm eaten to the elbow
before Sir Edwards companions
came up and released him. The
cool resolution Of the man in feign-
ing death had been the means OF
saving what has since proved to be a
most valuable life; for, as Sir Edward
says when telling the story, had
he moved, or uttered even a groan,
the tiger would have put an end to
his existence before going on with
his repast.
OF course the shattered arm had to
be removed from the shoulder. 1t
may be imagined what the suffering
was which the victim endured while
lying, quite conscious, in the power
of a VOraCiOus "man eater"

Norman and Percheron Horses.

EDITOR STANDARD:-As there
seems to be an opinion among our
people that the PercherOn and Nor
man horses are a different breed, i will
endeavOr to show them to be one and
the same horse. There is the English
Shire, the Clydesdale, the Belgium,
the Flemish, the French Draft, and
in fact every breed of heavy draft
horse known, all originating from
the BOullonis war horse, a native Of
France. These horses have been bred
differently in different countries, al
though coming from the same origin.
Heretofore the various counties in
France have had them registers and
recorded their own horses, and when
an American importer bought horse
and brought him to the United States
he would be registered in the Perch
eron-NOrman register without a ped
egree. One county in France, called
Perche, having established large
trade for Percheron horses, was un-
able to furnish them at home, con-
sequently the horse dealers would go
to other counties in the fall and buy
weanling colts, and when old enough
for market would register them in
the Percheron register, making it inn
